The firm has humble origins. It was started in 2013 in a single room set up by founder with no prior experience working in a law firm. Both the founders had outstanding academic records and focused on their deep understanding of the law to form the foundation of the firm.

Even today, the firm prides itself for its commitment towards knowing the law and encouraging its professionals to be at the forefront of the latest legal developments.

An early choice that the firm made was to combine the knowledge of law with the highest ethical practices. It allows the firm to set clear boundaries within which the professionals operate with freedom.

The diversity of people makes the firm. We work with professionals who have had significant industry or policy experience. Some of the brightest lawyers from law schools are part of the firm. A diverse mix allows the firm to collaborate effectively.
